[glow=red,2,300] Coming Soon: Table Tennis demo [/glow] As most of you know, I don’t like to talk about upcoming content, let alone dates. In this case, I happen to be down talking to the folks that work with Rockstar, and they told me it would be ok for me to mention that there is a demo on its way to the Marketplace for ‘Table Tennis.’ I also found out the demo is single and two-player (but no Live) play. Of course when I asked them a date…all they would say is ‘very very soon.’ How soon? The moment it’s on Marketplace, I’ll let you know. www.majornelson.com/archive/2006/07/17/Coming-Soon_3A00_-Table-Tennis-demo.aspx

[glow=red,2,300] Ninety-Nine Nights Demo Now on XBL[/glow] Behold a combo of magics and fantasy... for free!by Kathleen Sanders July 28, 2006 - Today Microsoft unleashed a free 587.43MB demo for the Xbox 360 action adventure game Ninety-Nine Nights. The demo is currently available for download through Xbox Live. The collaborative project between Tetusya Mizuguchi's Q Entertainment (who brought us Lumines, Rez, and Meteos) and Korean studio Phantagram (who brought us Kingdom Under Fire) the fantasy-infused, combo-laden Ninety-Nine Nights puts players in command of seven different characters as they hack their way through scads of baddies. The demo is from an early level of the game and features the reluctant 19 year-old blue knight Aspharr and his sister Inphyy. We've featured Aspharr this week as part of our Ninety-Nine Nights Character Showcase leading up to the game's North American release mid-August. xbox360.ign.com/articles/721/721784p1.htmlClick the link for screencaps!

[glow=red,2,300]Castlevania is heading to Xbox Live Arcade. [/glow] by Luke Smith, 08/03/2006 UPDATE: For clarification, the version of Symphony of the Night that will appear on Xbox Live is not the Sega Saturn version of the title, it is the PlayStation version. Furthermore, nothing from Konami has indicated that SOTN's appearance on XBLA will keep the title exclusive to Microsoft's Live Arcade. ORIGINAL STORY: Kaz Hirai's triumphant warcry of "Riiiiiidge Racer" on the PSP led people to believe other key PSOne titles would soon be heading to the PSP via emulation. Apparently Konami missed the memo, as Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is making its way to Xbox Live Arcade. The September issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly (issue: 207) reports: Konami is resurrecting the cult PS1 game Castlevania: Symphony of the Night on Xbox Live Arcade. Along with SOTN, Konami is also bringing back other classic hits, some revered (Frogger, Contra, Super Contra, Track & Field) some obscure (Time Pilot), and some really obscure (Scramble). When will SOTN head to XBLA? Representatives from Konami told 1UP that the game is tenatively slated for a Q1 2007 release on XBLA. 1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3152635

[glow=red,2,300] Battlestar Galactica targets Xbox Live[/glow] [UPDATE] TV special recapping Peabody-winning Sci-Fi channel series will become first frakkin' full-length show available on Microsoft's online service.By Tor Thorsen, GameSpot Posted Aug 9, 2006 7:15 pm PTWhen it debuted in 2003, the new Battlestar Galactica was greeted with skepticism. After all, it was a remake of a 1970-'80s series with a strong cult following produced by the Sci-Fi Channel, a cable network then infamous for its low-budget TV movies of the week. Galactica stars Grace Park, James Callis, and Tricia Helfer. Surprisingly, Battlestar Galactica proved the naysayers wrong. Its innovative plotlines, which were created by ex-Star Trek: The Next Generation writer Ronald D. Moore, won it critical acclaim and solid ratings. The series has also garnered a major following for its unusually gritty atmosphere. Instead of the clean-cut, sober officers of the Star Trek shows, Galactica's crew is an unkempt, hard-drinking lot whose demoralized dialogue is peppered with the fictional expletive "frak." In 2004, the show was picked up as a full-time series. It ended its most recent season, its second, in March with one of the more shocking cliff-hangers in sci-fi television history. Such boldness helped the show win one of this year's Peabody Awards, the prestigious honor for excellence in broadcasting, which it shared with CNN, NBC Nightly News, and South Park, among others. The third season of Battlestar Galactica is premiering in October, and the Sci-Fi channel is pulling out all the stops to promote it. It has put together a television special, titled Battlestar Galactica: The Story So Far, summing up the key events of the Battlestar Galactica miniseries and its first two seasons. The special will air on all the cable stations owned by Sci-Fi parent NBC Universal, which includes Bravo and USA, as well as the West Coast affiliates of the NBC broadcast TV network. NBC Universal will also be targeting gamers with its PR offensive by releasing The Story So Far on Xbox Live Marketplace in its entirety. Though both seasons of Battlestar Galactica are already available on iTunes, the special will be the "first long-form program ever to be offered" on Xbox Live. [UPDATE] NBC Universal reps told GameSpot that the Battlestar Galactica episode would be free of charge and available in mid-September. The rep was unclear as to the size of the download. Unfortunately, the Xbox Live announcement had no information on the rumored Battlestar Galactica role-playing game which Moore mentioned when he spoke at the 2006 Game Developers Conference. www.gamespot.com/news/6155564.html
